TSMC is the #1 semiconductor producer on the planet. And it's not even close. They make the smallest chips with the yugest performance. TSMC is one of the primary reasons the CCP wants to take over Taiwan so badly.
TSMC is probably the most important company on the planet, if you're a realist about how much electronics impacts our lives. This deal is so, so good for the USA.
Yes. TSMC importance to Taiwan and America and the free world can not be underestimated... The sooner that plant gets done In America the better for all involved.
Yep, I remember a decade or so back. The real China had a bad Typhoon. The price of all electronics went through the freaking roof. We're talking 300% cost increases for RAM.
You sure you're not thinking of Thailand and the monsoon flooding? They shit the bed in either late 2010 or early 2011, I forget which. I'd just bought some new hard drives a few weeks before it all happened, and prices doubled by the time I had my computer put together.

100% correct.

That might have been it, I will admit to being wrong.
I tried building a computer at that time. I do remember.
